Мы не умеем прощаться, -
Все бродим плечо к плечу.
Уже начинает смеркаться,
Ты задумчив, а я молчу.
В церковь войдем, увидим
Отпеванье, крестины, брак,
Не взглянув друг на друга, выйдем…
Отчего все у нас не так?
Или сядем на снег примятый
На кладбище, легко вздохнем,
И ты палкой чертишь палаты,
Где мы будем всегда вдвоем.
Anna Akhmatova, March 1917 (via morrrrning)
